  • Question

  • Refer to the given figures (a) and (b). A logic analyzer is used to check the circuit in figure (a) and displays the waveforms shown in figure (b). The actual analyzer display shows all four data outputs, Q0-Q3. The analyzer's cursor is placed at position X and all four of the data output lines show a LOW level output. What is wrong, if anything, with the circuit?

    Refer to the given figures (a) and (b). A logic analyzer is used to check the circuit in figure (a)


  • Options
  • A. Nothing is wrong, according to the display. The outputs are in the open state and should show zero output voltage.
  • B. The circuit is in the READ mode and the outputs, Q0-Q3, should reflect the contents of the memory at that address. The chip is defective; replace the chip.
  • C. The circuit is in the Refer to the given figures (a) and (b). A logic analyzer is used to check the circuit in figure (a) mode and should be writing the contents of the selected address to Q0?Q3.
  • D. The Q0?Q3 lines can be either LOW or HIGH, since the chip is in the tristate mode in which case their level is unpredictable.

  • Correct Answer
  • Nothing is wrong, according to the display. The outputs are in the open state and should show zero output voltage.
